We are seeing signs of spring and even had temps in the 80s this weekend. I wore shorts twice! The news regarding our national security and continued attempts to erode our constitution is making me physically ill. I continue to call my state’s republican senators. One has been vocal, the others cower behind their billionaire backers. Stay Caffeinated and spread kindness.

    We are having a mix of gorgeous weather and storms but luckily it’s staying at least in the 60s. I loved The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches and am so excited about the sequel. I hope you have a great week!

    Yay for spring temperatures! 🌷 We’ve only gotten to 70°, but I will take that especially when the sun is shining. 🌞

    I can hardly handle being on social media anymore. I really struggle with needing to know what’s going on and not wanting to know what’s going on. It also blows my mind how ignorant people can be and the lies they’ll believe. I guess that’s why Rump and The Spaceman are defunding education, libraries, and PBS… to keep the uneducated onboard with shredding the Constitution. 😐

    I hope you have a sunshine filled week! 🙂

    had a couple of ‘short days’ here as well and today is blustery … that witchy book sounds like it belongs on my tbr..

    You cracked out the shorts and I put on a cardigan for the first time when I woke up! Boo hiss for me! That Witches one looks fun….

    The news is making me feel physically sick, too. I need to be more proactive about calling my senators and representative.

    We’re finally getting some of those warm temperatures. It’s set to reach 79 today. I pulled out the capris for the first time today. Time to do the closet swap soon, I think—moving the summer clothes to the bedroom and the winter ones back to the spare room.

    Hi! Nice to meet you. This is my first time participating in your linkup, as I just recently started posting about books. Thank you for hosting!

    Here is MN, the weather is wacky. We had 70F weather on Wednesday, then yesterday got chilly, last night it rained and this morning everything is covered in ice. Now its warming up but raining. I cannot keep up. LOL

    It feels like spring here too! And even if I am not living in the US I am sick of what’s been said and done right now. Towards other countries (it’s like colonialism is back) and towards US citizen’s rights. I think the solution can only come from the US citizens and their reactions, sadly. Lots of courage sent your way.

    The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches is on my TBR, will be interested to see what you think of it! And I’m behind on reviews and it looks like you have several that I need to get checked out. I was wearing shorts in NOLA this past week on my trip, and came back to a couple days of shorts weather at home. Of course last night we got rain and a cold front, so I’ll be back to capris or jeans today. Have a good week!

    Spring is in the air! I love seeing the signs of spring, but I’m not ready for warmer weather. I wish we could have the sights of spring without feeling the warmer temps. 🙂

  10. A Voracious Reader

    We’re also creeping into the 80s. I hate it because I still don’t have A/C yet. I’m with you on the state of our Nation. I loved The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.

  11. the bookworm

    It was nearly 80 yesterday here and today it’s in the 60’s. Enjoy your week and your books. I used to read alot of Lori Foster and enjoyed her work.

  12. Lin

    Here in Bulgaria has been rainy and hot and cold on and off. Today the weather fel like in the UK changing every 10 mins lol! I have The very secret society of irregular witches on my to read list for this year! Heard so many good things about it 🙂 I have no idea what is going on in the US. . The less I know the better…

  13. Becki

    The Very Secret Society looks quite intriguing 🙂 And YAY for warmer weather. I think we only drop to the 40s once or twice this week. It may be time to pull out my spring dresses.

  14. Greg

    I hear you. It’s so depressing. It’s felt a little like spring here too though. Be well this weekend.

  15. Lola

    Our temperatures were a bit lower this week, but plenty of sunshine, but we haven’t had much rain in weeks. The political situation in the US sounds very dire. I really enjoyed The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches and hope you’ll enjoy it too, looking forward to hear your thoughts. I listened to the audio version as well.
